The Green Man is often portrayed as a male face surrounded by or made from plants and leaves and festooned with flowers or fruits. Representing rebirth, fertility, abundance, imagination and an untamed protective nature spirit, the Green Man has been a resonating symbol from ancient to modern times. Bacchus, the Holly King, Father Christmas, Cernunnos, Robin Goodfellow, Puck, Odin, as well as Peter Pan, a wild spirit clothed in leaves and protecting his forest, are all well known examples of similar woodland spirits. Green Man inspired art was exceptionally popular during both the Renaissance and Gothic Revival periods. Used to decorate everything from cathedrals to gravestones the faces of the Green Men varied from simple faces peering from dense leaves to abstracted foliage that only reveals the face's features at certain angles. With the resurgence of Neopaganism and the concern for the environment the Green Man has once again become symbolic of nature's protector.
